context
I have no idea what this page is about. Context should be made clear at the very beginning, and then maybe it should be expanded; see Guide to writing better articles. This article also needs categorization so it can be more easily found. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 18:54, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

NISPOM is not a sanitization method
I just wanted to point out that DoD 5220.22-M (NISPOM, National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual) is not a data sanitization method. The manual does not even specify any data sanitization methods. It simply states that sanitization is required. See the citations in National Industrial Security Program if you don't believe me. The idea that the NISPOM specifies how you have to do the sanitization appears to be a popular misconception. So equating a USAF sanitization standard to the NISPOM is incorrect. They are apples and oranges. --DragonHawk 04:38, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Delete
This reg has been replaced with a differently numbered one. All the services probably have one and each is not notable enough for an article. This article should be deleted or merged with the article on the DoD standard, which might be DoD 5220.22-M-Sup 1, although I would think it would be a reg from the NSA. --Pmsyyz (talk) 21:30, 11 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I agree we only need one article on DoD data destruction standards, but when it exists, this article can simply redirect to it.--agr (talk) 22:02, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
